"Laverne . . .?
"What the . . . You’re not Shirley. Where is she and why are we covered in peachy calculus soup."
"I have no idea. A moment ago I was licking a Harrison Ford sticker - now we’re robbing the Git-n-Go."
"The what? Are you jerkin' me around? So help me!"
"Actually, I think we're sharing a dream."
"Buddy you . . ."

I may have to rethink retiring him, if you're going to keep making me laugh.
Easy now.
Put him away and nobody gets hurt.
Especially the people who don't want to hear anymore about armadillos.
Besides its just a code word for the people in the cave who have to think about puzzles all day long.
Thanks Arma- I mean Tracy
Thank you John
Actually you "put your finger" on something I've been thinking about, with regards to these shorties. The reason you don't get this and probably some of my others is that they are part of series, that makes up an outline for a larger story. This isn't usual for this challenge and most people who have read my stuff (as of late) are in the same boat as you. I've also been feeling a little constrained by staying true to the larger storyline, so when I get the chance I'll try and do a traditional shortie. Your not dumb Barb, you just came in the middle of the story. If you want to get the whole picture you'd have to read from week 39 and keep track of what is going on.
Thanks
